There is no contraindication between breast implants and laser hair removal. Laser hair removal only targets the melanin in the hair follicle and thus has no adverse affect on the breast implants.

Laser hair removal damage my breast implants?
I grew some hair around the areola after I gave birth. I would like to know if it is safe to have a laser hair remove on this area. I have not heard of hair grow on this area on a woman, so I feel that my problem is isolated. Few years ago, I had breast implants. Now I am considering having laser hair removal and would like know if my implants can be affected by the laser.
